C. Computations For Table no. 1 Pace Factor =

a. For Pace Given: no. of Paces = 613 n= 5 TD= 80 m Mean number of paces =

PF= PF = 0.65 ANS

= 122.6 ANS

For Table no. 2 a. For pace Pace Factor =

Given: no. of paces = 172 n= 5 TD = 23 m Mean no. of paces

PF= PF = 0.668 ANS PD ( Length ) = PF ( ) =

= RP= RP= = 34.4 ANS RP=

PD

= 22.98

23 m

E. Remarks 1. The travel distances were not a straight path so the group had discrepancies in pace ranging from 1-10 in distance AB. 2. Due to many peoples walking around the quadrangle the pacing was not totally and directly straight upon the border line.
